A biblical outline shows that the words of the Bible form a significant part of God's action in the world. A theological outline focuses on the relationship of Scripture with each of the persons of the Trinity. And a doctrinal outline examines the 'attributes' of Scripture. A final chapter explores some significant areas in which the doctrine of Scripture should be applied. --from publisher description00aBiblexInspiration.00aBiblexEvidences, authority, etc. 0aWord of God (Christian theology) 0aLanguage and languagesxReligious aspectsxChristianity. 0aRevelationxChristianity. 0aKnowledge, Theory of (Religion)  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  2lcccBK  c21282d21281  00102lcc70aKABUbKABUcGENd2026-02-18eDonationi2025/3392l0oBT180.W67 W37 2009 C.1p38645r2026-02-18 15:11:48tC.1w2026-02-18yBK
